I need to add a quote to the beginning of numbers in 2 columns ie 2 becomes "2. and then need to insert the column a1..a50 into the text

[wait app]
"3
=a1
[tab field]
"2
[enter]
[wait app]
=b1
[erase eof]
[enter]
[wait app]
y
[enter]

Then output the whole text to text file. Any ideas...
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Try the following:

Sub OutputFile()
Open "c:iFileName.txt" For Output As #1
Print #1, "[wait app]"
Print #1, """" & "3"
Print #1, "=a1"
Print #1, "[tab field]"
Print #1, """" & "2"
Print #1, "[Enter]"
Print #1, "[wait app]"
Print #1, "=b1"
Print #1, "[erase eof]"
Print #1, "[Enter]"
Print #1, "[wait app]"
Print #1, "y"
Print #1, "[Enter]"
For i = 1 To 50
Print #1, Range("A1").Offset(i - 1, 0).Value
Next i
Close #1
End Sub

Hope it helps
